When a leak starts spouting, or a drain is blocked, or even the hot water simply is not, the last thing you want is to have to wait for a plumber to get there. In an urgent plumbing scenario, often the longer you wait, the worse things get.
A plumbing emergency can be a significant inconvenience, and they have a propensity to occur at the worst possible moment. We know how annoying it can be, which is why we aim to answer your call and get there as fast as we can, whatever the time or day.
No matter what the time is, call us and our Urgent plumbers will respond straight away. We’ll be there fast, and resolve your Varsity Lakes emergency plumbing problems efficiently and speedily so your home can return to normal.
Our highly trained plumbers have the knowledge, equipment and components to repair plumbing problems of all types quickly and efficiently. We have been looking after customers in the Varsity Lakes area for years, and our loyal customers keep coming back because they know we’ll do an efficient and tidy job.
As well as emergency plumbing, we also do every-day plumbing. If you’ve got a non-urgent plumbing job, phone or email our office and we’ll make sure it gets sorted. Our friendly reliable team are ready and waiting to serve you.
Safety first! Electricity and water do not mix well, so turn the electricity off at the power box if needed first.
If there is water still leaking, turn off the water to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go straight to the main water valve for your home. If you’re unable to locate a tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your house to depressurise the system and minimise the leak.
Once that is sorted, give our team a call, no matter what the day or time is. We will be with you rapidly to resolve the problem.
While you wait, start wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and remove significant things from the affected area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
You may have been shown the main valve as the stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is located on the property perimeter near the road, typically under a blue or black plastic cover.
The toilet has its own tap alongside the toilet bowl.
When your pipes are overflowing, you need assistance quickly. Our emergency Varsity Lakes plumbers know how disheartening and damaging blocked pipes can be, and we are ready to get them cleared again.
Blocked pipes can cause damage to your dwelling, or create a health hazard very rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to clear the clog yourself with a plunger. If that is not possible though, you need a professional there rapidly to clear the blockage so life can get back to normal.
Whether it is the laundry sink that won’t clear, or a clog in the shower, or worst of all, sewage flowing down the hall or across the garden, our on call Varsity Lakes plumbers will quickly identify the obstruction and resolve it so that life can get back to normal.
In the rare case that we can’t get the blockage completely removed or more comprehensive repairs are required, we will find a temporary solution to keep you going until our plumbers return.
If you've got a plunger, it's worth trying to unblock the clog yourself. We recommend using a plunger that has a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they rarely do a good job and can damage your drains.
Do not let a obstructed drain get you down. Ring us and our emergency plumber will have everything flowing smoothly in no time.
It’s been a hard day at work and badly require a hot shower? Time to put the kids into the bath? Got a pile of dishes to finish off? It is rarely opportune to turn on the hot tap and suddenly discover that the water is barely warm.
When your hot water isn’t giving you that warm feeling, you want it repaired quickly. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling, there is a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you need it working again quickly so you can get back to normal life.
Hot water leaks can quickly push your power bill through the roof. Leaks undetected in the back of the hot water cupboard can create significant damage to your cabinetry. If you don’t get it fixed asap, the cost will become more expensive by the hour.
If you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, call our Varsity Lakes emergency plumbers straight away. We’ll get your hot water flowing again promptly. If you find a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also switch off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If you need a new hot water cylinder, our team can assist in picking the best solution for your budget, needs and location. If the entire hot water system requires upgrading, our plumbers can arrange to do that in a timely fashion as well.
From the little fresh water pipes in your walls and ceilings, to the large sewage pipes in the garden, most of the pipes in your house are concealed away out of sight and out of mind. You don’t even think of them until there’s an issue.
Often, we don’t even remember their existence unless something goes drastically wrong. But when water is coming through the ceiling, it is a major problem that must be resolved urgently before your house, your furnishings or even your health are damaged or destroyed.
Our emergency plumbers are ready to get to you quickly, so ring our plumbers as soon as you locate a burst pipe or leak of any sort. You can reduce further leaks by turning the water to the home off at the mains tap if required.
Pipes can deteriorate and start to leak for many reasons. If you own an older house, they might simply be old and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they may have iced up and split. In a new residence, there may be a problem with how they were installed. Subterranean seals might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Our 24 hour plumbers will identify and fix the broken pipes or leaks quickly and expertly.
Do you live with a tap that will not turn on or off, drips, leaks into the cupboards, or is simply broken?
We have been called to all sorts of faucet issues over the years, and know that even a tiny drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at 2am when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a trivial annoyance, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.
As well as keeping the everyone awake, a leaking tap can send your power bill though the roof as well, especially if it is hot water. Do not let the bills rise even more, or maybe even cause damage to your house, get hold of our 24 hour plumber straight away.
From replacement washers to entirely new faucets and taps, our on call plumbers have everything they might need in the vans to remedy your leak. The team carry a small selection of basin and sink faucets to choose from if you require a new one, or can put in a temporary one if required.
From emergency plumbing to general maintenance, there is no job too big or small for our Varsity Lakes plumbers. Not only can we repair the leaking taps, the team can also provide a broad selection of other plumbing services.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a piece of string of some type, and tie it onto the faucet aerator so that it hangs down to the base of the skink or basin. The drips will slide along the twine and trickle off quietly.
